Riparian Vegetation: Alluvial Areas of Russian River Tributaries, Sonoma County, California, 2000
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This polygon shapefile describes the the extent of riparian vegetation in alluvial areas of selected Sonoma County, Russian River tributaries in 2000. Russian River tributaries include: Barrelli Creek, Big Sulphur Creek, Brooks Creek, Crocker Creek, Dry Creek, Gill Creek, Hobson Creek, Hoot Owl Creek, Icaria Creek, Lytton Creek, Maacama Creek, Mark West Creek, Miller Creek and Sausal Creek.

Bibliographic information
| Supplemental information |
The shapefile was created by heads-up digitizing using County of Sonoma, Information Systems Department, digital orthophotography (compressed SID Imagery) that has "been corrected to the ground using aerial and ground-based global positioning system (GPS) survey coordinates. The image data are currently being quality checked by County staff and may contain irregularities. The data are “mosaicked” together into 10 separate delivery areas and the resolution of the data varies by delivery area: One-foot resolution or better in urban or incorporated areas and two-foot resolution in forested, mountainous, or other unincorporated areas of the County" (County of Sonoma, Information Systems Department, Data Request). |
